Concerning A Scene in the Ending FMV (spoiler I suppose)

[DMKA]

The following contains spoilers:

Ok, so anyway we get to that point in the ending where it's really emotional and Laguna is kneeling infront of Raine's grave, just after the flashback of his proposal to her...

Anyway, then he turns and Ellone is walking down the hill and waving at him happily, and here, off in the distant background, we can see Laguna's buddies, Ward and Kiros:



Now, when I look at that, I'm wondering why the hell they've magically changed their clothes back to the ones they had in the last two dream flashbacks and look exactly as they did...Laguna is right there, older, and Ellone is right there, older...so why in the world have they somehow reverted back?

Is this a goof, or could it be an intentional side affect of time compression? I'm confused.

[boys from the dwarf]

Let me be the first to say it is a goof. it cant be the time compression because that gets stopped after you defeat ultimecia. The only reason i can think of for them wearing theyre old army clothes is for old times sake realy.

[FiragaBreak]

My game must be messed up because it doesn't show Kiros or Ward. It just shows petals flying through the air as Ellone waves at Laguna.






And that Shake It Aeris thing is so WRONG!!

[boys from the dwarf]

Actually it does show kiros and ward so next time you complete it look harder.

[MushroomZOMBIE]

I think the "Shake It Aeris" thing is sorta funny.......in the sense of what DMKA did about it.
Yeah, I wondered about that,too.HOW DID THEY DO THAT??!!

[BackRoomKid]

well...how do you guys get changed into clothes? takes you what.....5 minutes?

and one more thing to state: it's a video game

one MORE thing to state: squaresoft (at that time) was too lazy to design new clothes for them...and i'm sure they got rid of their esther outfit when walking in a sunny open field

[TheAbominatrix]

Well we dont know if they look 'exactly' as they did. We see them in the distant. All we know is that they're wearing the same clothes, or the same style of clothes. Maybe they just felt nostalgic?

[Destai]

They jut changed into there outdoor clothes, they havent chnged that much physically since the flashbacks. They were fully grown dults in the flashbacks anyway. If you saw a close up of them in fmv theyd probably have older features like Laguna but even Laguna had an FMV of him showing him when he was older and when he was younger so any differences there woukd seem more noticeable in the first place.

I never put much thought into it, but it is kind of wierd to think that after 17+ years, they are still wearing the same outfit.

Yeah that's my point. xD Especially being in such high positions in the most advanced, largest city in the world.

Wouldn't that give them the right to wear pretty much whatever they pleased? Is it wrong to think that they may not feel like wearing their official Esthar uniforms when they go to visit Raine's grave? Don't forget, Raine didn't exactly have the warmest feelings for Esthar in the world. They were responsible for killing Ellone's parents, and taking Ellone away from her, causing Laguna to run off and not be there when Squall was born and Raine died...

I dont remember a FF character ever changing his outfit through the whole game.

Then you didn't play Final Fantasy VIII.

No no no... It's just wierd that after seventeen years, they still haven't bought new clothing. (And the old ones still look good as new! )
